At one point and time, Petco paid for well animal vet checks upon purchase. Petco contracts with a vet in the area. You take the animal and your sales slip to the vet, and the vet bills Petco.
The company doesn't advertise this service, but it did exist upon request about 5 years ago--My old herp vet is/was the designated Petco exotics vet in our area and told me about it. (I now have one just as good, but closer to where I live.) Petco does not pay for medication if your animal needs it, but the office visit and fecal charges are quite a savings.
Sometimes Petco has treasures. For example: I picked up an african clawed gecko for $8.99. It was labelled a mediterranean gecko.
Best of luck with whatever animal you choose!
